Explain the hype behind this game Sup Forums

It looks one of the most boring generic piece of shit open world survival game in it's entire genre. Is it just let's play bait?

It is fun. I like it

>open world survival generic piece of shit
it's a battle royale you fuckin nob, and its been out for a little over three months, has sold over 4.8 million copies and has had a peak playerbase of 300,000+ players. gtfo

it seems p fun tbqh but I would never pay full price for it.

Does everything it's competitors does but better

Constant updates (the filesizes are a big excessive but its good to see an EA game actually get updates)

Very Tense

It's not worth full price, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it was fun

nice collection of buzzwords m8

its actually pretty fun

I fucking love how your argument is completely based in both ignorance and buzzwords.

It's a fucking battle royale where the objective is to kill other people while not dying yourself in a constantly shrinking arena. It's not open world because the large map gets smaller like every few minutes. It's not a survival game because there's no survival aspects other than not getting shot by the enemy.

Please actually learn about the thing you're shitposting about before you start shitposting.

Fun game to play with

Let me ask you this

Why play PUBG when you could play: The Culling, Unturned, Rust, Ark, H1Z1, Day Z, Last Man Standing...

It brings nothing new to the table and the fanbase is stupid for actually wasting money on it when many other shitty games like it already exist

ive never even heard of the culling but it looks like trash, rust is a sandbox survival, unturned is free to play minecraft roblox shit , Ark is an unfinished game that released dlc and charged for it when its not even released lol, DAYZ DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED. DayZ is a hardcore survival sim, and its fucking terrible at the moment just read steam reviews, BI abandoned it. I google last my standing and i get shit tv shows not even a game.

The point youre making about it "bringing nothing new to the table" makes you look like a fucking idiiot when all these games are completely fucking different.

>The Culling, Unturned, Rust, Ark, H1Z1, Day Z, Last Man Standing

You obviously don't know what these games are about, retard. Otherwise you wouldn't mix crafting survival games and battle royal games

also
>muh buzzwords
stop trying to fit in

just calling it a shitty game is retarded dude, its been top of steam sales even during summer sale, its beat out LoL on twitch constantly, and its updated monthly at least. devs listen. you sound like a moron

>buzzwords

You're right I forgot early access too

>DUDE LE GAMES ARE SO SHIT AMIRITE? I'M SO CYNICAL I'M ONE OF THE GUYS XD

You're trying really hard aren't you?

I haven't played it, but the game looks unpredictable and that's fun. It's not like Overwatch or over competitive games, it's open and no two matches look like they play the same. It's why I love games like GTAO and don't play other games online.

>You're trying really hard aren't you?

I guess if that's what you wanna call it. I hate Sup Forums;s opinions for the most part but I'm shocked people actually like this game that will be dead in a few months

>will be dead in a few months

Hear hear my thoughts exactly!

>I haven't played any of these games so I base my opinions off of shit I saw on Sup Forums and the steam tags

TORTANIC memes were a mistake. All these fucking normies trying to meme/shitpost games they don't like hoping they take part in another TORTANIC is fucking cancer.

>game sells very well
>has very good rating on steam
>people are having fun with it

You're Sup Forums's opinion in a nutshell : contrarian ignorant weebshit who hates popular games and doesn't understand how anybody could disagree with him

>sales and views prove quality of a game
did you know you have to be 18 to post here

"Structured" play gets boring fast. I want freedom to play how I want. I don't want to be pinned down with a closed-in map, "Heroes" or anything like that.

Don't forget he's also gone this far with leaving his name as PUBG, probably a summer fag.

it's all marketing.
gameplay is just camp in a corner till you need to move.
it gave a bunch of free copies to twitch faggots so idiots that watch that shit get advertised to till they waste their money on it.

you clearly havent played h1z1, because their BR m ode was literally designed by player unknown

also, you're a cuck defending newest early access scam, youll be crying in buyer remorse threads in 4-6 months like every sad faggot that hyped up day z did

Dead by daylight syndrome

Realize that it will not be seeing a stable fan base for long. It is a huge bandwagon and everyone that spent more than $30 on will regret.

>He can't prove this wrong.
So this is your power. Heh.

The Culling is shit
Unturned is a zombie game, and shit
Rust is meh, and focuses more on the survival aspect which gets boring after awhile
Ark is Rust with dinosaurs
DayZ is awful

PUBG doesn't offer a revolutionary change, but it takes the concept and produces something that's much more polished than any of those games.
Once they add the vaulting mechanics I may actually re-buy it.
Hell, I'd argue that PUBG has better animations than AAA games like Ghost Recon Wildlands.

Did so to let you know I'm op

I bought it but felt dirty after I discovered the creator was a non white nigger low test beta cuck

yeah what about dead by daylight?

Steam sale

Most of those aren't the same premise, and they're all fucking garbage abandonware.

Whatever Sup Forums I'm going to sleep. Enjoy being sheep to the digitial masses...

unturned is actually pretty much what dayZ should've been, not even joking

the dev is like a 15 year old who can't model, but it's got zombies, the craftin's, the base buildgns, weapon attachments, etc
it doesn't even have voxels, you're literally shit talking unturned like OP is shit talking a game HE knows nothing about

the game sold almost 2M copies

I've never played PUBG, neither have I bought it nor am I defending it. I'm calling OP a fucking retard for having an opinion completely forged out of regurgitated Sup Forums opinions and steam tags. And then him being butthurt because he said the same thing as some shit poster he saw last week on his first day on Sup Forums and is shocked that some people take umbridge with it.

>This makes he furious
>How dare people play game he does not understand!
*Autistic screeching*

Thier twitch friends play it and shill it hard

It's the first game to condense the Battle Royale/Hunger Games formula into a fun, concise package

>BTFO so he leaves
Don't forget to tip your fedora on your way out.

It didn't go on sale.

A huge chunk of Sup Forumss volume is retards parroting what other retards have shat out in a desperate plea to fit in

>want to buy this
>no friends

How is solo play?

video games aren't for you then.

In fact, games in general aren't for you.

Also I'm willing to bet most of the people calling you a retard don't even play the game, you're just a fucking retard and people are calling you out as one.

you're a fucking IDIOT who cant comprehend the basic line of dialog in the fucking thread, you fucking idiot

h1z1 BR mode is designed by player unknown
its literally the fucking same shit

PUBG is just fucking outsourced to china farm game that dumbass plebs like yourself are buying up, its a scam, you're an idiot. and you'll regret it

Fun enough to be playable
You'll constantly miss not having a second set of eyes to cover your back, though

Not worth it.

It's fun solo, but definitely better than friends

no faggot, i used to think PUBG was also a boring survival game.
Then I got the game and played it.
Now I'm having fun.

>The Culling
16 players, wow
>Unturned,

its great, just be patient and slightly more cautious until you git gud

*with friends
Vidya is better than friends in general, though

>bought it a few days ago
>already have 25 hours played and am itching to play more when friend is ready
>Sup Forums claims I'll totally have buyer's remorse eventually
It's 30 bucks
Are you guys all teenagers relying on allowance

>you're a retard who can't comprehend the basic line of dialog!
>then goes on to accuse me of buying a game I just stated I didn't buy or play

Fucking kill yourself.

do you mean that people having fun with the game are getting their feelings scammed?
you fucking retard

PUBG is simply the battle royal game that does battle royal the best right now.
Don't like that genre? No one gives a shit

ssssstop

No shit Sup Forums is a bunch of underage b&. Just look at how some of these fucking retards are typing. How do you spend 90% of your worthless NEET life on a text and image board and not know how to use a fucking capital letter? Oh yeah, by being 10 years old.

I cant decide if you're baiting or you are a fucking idiot. Well you are a fucking idiot either way

>I know what I must do
>Barrel through his little shack and crush him under my tires
>Get behind a tree, back to the border of the circle
>Get headshot by some faggot way out in the unsafe zone

game's pretty fun

how good would Sup Forums be if it wasnt full of shills like you?

>guy shits on the game
>FUCKING SHILLS

seek help

But that's false and you don't believe anything you wrote.

This is completely fucking spot on. Sadly, you won't even get a reply from that guy because he was clearly just baiting and wanted (You)s galore.

>guy asks people to explain why the game is good
>a hundred normiefags come in and tell OP how great the game is
>other normiefags read this believing the game is great
>not understanding viral marketing

get a brain transplant faggot

Technically he is shilling the game because he's baiting replies and getting people to talk about it.

get a tinfoil hat you fucking autist

>what is viral marketing

retard.

shit you opened my eyes, from now on I'll check for evil marketers under my bed every night before going to sleep

>Explain the hype behind this game Sup Forums

It is the only one of its genre to not run like Early Access shit.

It has everything the genre was lacking.

what are you even talking about dude? you sound like a fucking retard.

PS:

>there is no such thing as bad publicity

sorry peanutbrain

Do you not understand the basics of marketing a product? If I appear before a crowd and start talking about a product and saying "WOW YUM YUM SO GOOD EVERYONE SHOULD BUY THIS!" people will instantly assume I'm just some lowly shill trying to pedal my goods. If, on the other hand, I'm like "hey, what's all the hype with this product? I mean it doesn't even taste that good! Who else agrees?" I'm almost guaranteed to get people's attention because they're curious about what is supposed to be good or not. They get involved because it opens people up to sharing their personal views, and thus: you have successfully gotten everyone's attention.

How fucking dense are you?

As someone who hates DayZ, H1 and all of those types of games I can honestly say I'm okay with PUBG but to be fair that's ONLY because I play the game duo with a close friend. I'd never play it solo and there are a lot of problems with the game. I'd probably have minor buyer's remorse but I got it in some promotion shit so didn't pay a dime. If it was 10 bucks and you had people to play with then hell yeah but full price and solo? No way.

It's the challenge and various ways you can try to win, the competitive nature of it that is the actual fun part. And fighting the physics every step of the way (fuck the motorcycle it's a death trap).

>talk shit about the game : marketers
>say the game's good : marketers
>talk about the game : marketers

Shit man these devilish marketers are everywhere

>20 "first fotd then fotw then fotm then foty" threads a day
>always some copy pasta pubg discussion continously getting bumped

shit man, I bet its just people loving the game that copypaste these threads all day.

DayZ and Ark had the same fucking thing till the hype and viral marketing jibe wore off what the fuck is your point?

there is nothing devilish about some nerds getting paid to shill a game in online discussions.

stop.

go on the Sup Forums archive and show me how this thread is copypasted

I'm waiting

It's almost like... the people who actually enjoy this game... are just playing it... and talking about it... and not making blatant shill threads like "HEY GAIZ WUTS ALL DA HYPE ABOUT PUBG ANYWAYS LOL??????"

Wow... Really... Activates... My... Almonds!

? prove you are not just some pubg shill first, how about that.

>Answer a question with a question.
>HURR DURR HE DIDN'T ANSWER MY QUESTION
ebin

This. If you say "what's all the hype?", you're implying there's any hype to begin with (loaded question fallacy) which is a great way to get people's attention and start discussion about something. If you just say "This game is GOTY", people will be like "nice blogpost/opinion, fag" and move on.

I don't even own the game, faggot

Thats what I'm saying. Its really just "talk about how good this game is".

>No one answers the questions and instead has console war tier spergouts over the fact their precious game is compared to these other games that are nearly the same.
So this is the power of early access.

why so butthurt

Nice rethoric, faggot

He's falseflagging, just ignore.

It's just another cookie-cutter open world survival game. It's having it's hype period because morons are currently playing it. That's all.

It's fun. Does a video game need another reason to be played?

guess what, shills dont have to own the game to shill for it. they dont even have to be gamers. all it takes is some basic understanding of social psychology and marketing.

considering how angry and stupid you come across, you lack both, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt - it might be a legit thread. but the other 20 daily reposts aren't.

Shills need to die

*autistic screeching* REEEEEEEEEEEE FUCKING NORMIE SHILL SJW GET OUT MY WEEB BOARD REEEEE

>WAAAAAH YOU DIDNT BUY MY FOTM EARLY ACCESS ABANDONWARE WAAAAAAAH
Cry about it, holy shit.

You know quite a lot about shills, aren't you a shill yourself?
More seriously, kill yourself paranoid autist

>Appeal to majority
>Claim the majority is dumb
hmmmmm....
